Tomatin 12 year is really good, and relatively inexpensive at $30 a bottle. Bowmore is a nice Islay from my experience. I have heard good things of Glenfiddich, Oban, and Glanmorangie... now that someone has given a nod to the Port finish...which is the one I was wanting to try anyhow... I may have to give it a try. Speyburn is an OK Speyside variety, and it can usually be had for little, around $20 if I recall, maybe $25.

Malts
I'm either in a Islay mood, in which case it is Lagavulin 16yr old or Bowmore, or a Speyside one, in which case it is Cragganmore 12yr. Speyside when I am in need of a lift to the spirits (sic) and Islay when I am in mood to explore the complexities a bit more.

Not that I've ever tasted a whisky I didn't like, but I love Glenkinchie.

My First taste in 27 years
O.K. I haven't touched Scotch since I was a teenager. I do like Bourbon, Cognac (Brandy), Tequila and a few others neat. So I had to see if I didn't like it because of the bad memory. Not wanting to invest a lot I tried Speyburn 10 y.o.........I liked it! It reminded me of a very dry finish Cognac. I can still taste a warm earthy flavor and it has been at least 30 minutes since I finished my first one. Not as bad as a kilt addiction but I'll probably be adding some different varieties to the bar. So.......that being the only name I've tried and can remember, it is Speyburn.

Thanks for getting me interested, I'll have another. O'Neille
